YOUR SATURDAY CARTOONS: SUMMER SOLSTICE: JUNE 22, 2019

Summer Solstice Greetings to you all. Hopefully this will be another summer of all that is good, politics notwithstanding. Get out, enjoy the gifts of life and forget all that political stuff for awhile. Refresh and reset. We are, fundamentally, blessed to have such beauty at our fingertips. 

Meanwhile please accept my apologies for the lateness of this post. Blogspot was being very unkind. Everything was ready to post yesterday morning because I had a mild medical procedure booked and thought I might not be up to the task when I got home. All that remained was to load it.

However, Blogspot/Google had other plans. Nothing worked, nothing downloaded. I tried. I went to bed and got up twice in the night to try again. Nada.

Usually I load in groups of 20. Today I had to load in groups of 5, taking an extremely long time. At last things are loaded, late morning Saturday, but rather than prepare the post, I prefer to go spend time with my beloved grandson who has been, at 9 months, jaunting about Europe for the past month and is wanting to tell me about his adventures. 

But, come heck or high water, this will be up before the sun sets this Summer Solstice evening. Perhaps they will be SUNDAY cartoons for this week. Meanwhile, all of you be well. 

And home. The Grandson was perfection; his travel-exhausted parents were pleased to have someone divert his attention so they could unpack. All I can say is I am totally in love with that infant who recognized me after a month of being held and loved by European strangers. Apparently in Portugal, if you are carrying a baby, everyone loves you but expects an exchange with the infant.  Anyhow, it is dinner time on Saturday. I am eating fresh strawberries and plain yogurt for dinner. Life is good! 

And now your cartoons are going to be late but, please, enjoy!






Rather than pan opponents, some folks are putting up these warning signs on their lawns!
























How I feel, due to my love of this nation being torn apart.


















They thought he was house trained! Cue The Doors with "Break on Through to the Other Side"!




































The Himalayas today. The route to the top of Everest is somewhat over-used these days. Sir Hillary would be so proud.
















 




Time warp!


This did not age well!






















As a child I used to fill an aquarium with these little creatures every spring. I caught them in the ponds around where I lived, now known as Agincourt, Toronto, but once fields of horses and endless miles of greenery. I preferred the big fat tadpoles up at our lake, but these tiny creatures always fascinated me as they developed and grew.






















Proving once again that her nitwittery has no limits, AOC has again riled up the Right with a tweet declaring, "the United States is running concentration camps on our southern border, and that is exactly what they are. They are concentration camps."

Far from backing away from this odious statement, AOC has doubled down on the "accuracy" of her tweet by saying that concentration camps weren't the same as death camps. This is pretty much a distinction without a difference, considering the countless WWII prisoners who died agonizing deaths owing to starvation, exhaustion, exposure to the elements, vicious abuse, and an almost complete lack of medical care. All of which occurred under the ever-present threat of being sent to a death camp.

Sometimes, stupidity can be amusing. At other times, it is dangerous and repugnant. This is one of those times.


FROM THE VAULT...
Since potential war with Iran is being talked about a lot, we thought this might be a good time for a quick retrospective to show just how the Ayatollahs got the idea that America could be pushed around.

We begin by going back to 2009, when a people's revolution failed after receiving no support or even encouragement from Iran's best buddy...



Jumping ahead, let's consider Obama's infamous "Iran Deal," which was intended to be the centerpiece of his legacy. And, if war breaks out, it actually may be...



We hope that the tension surrounding Iran ramps down peacefully. But if it doesn't, we would do well to remember who it was that shipped $400 million in cash to Iran in the dark of night, and planted the dangerous idea that the United States would always back down from a challenge.

Lots of green space in Sweden.


Packed like sardines in Las Vegas!


And here you have the Bronx.




Joe Biden continues to lead the pack (well, by now it's a herd) of Democrat presidential candidates, and he's just made it abundantly clear what it is that makes him different from all the others: his bloodlust and willingness to implement a "final solution" to handle those on the Right. 

Biden's declaration of war was made during an address to the Moral Action Congress of the Poor People's Campaign (no, seriously) following a question about what he would do as president if those darned Republicans obstructed his agenda like they did when Obama had a super-majority. Yes, yes ~ we know that the Republicans weren't able to obstruct anything, but just try telling that to a Democrat.

At any rate, Battlin' Biden said when it comes to congressional Republican resistance, "there are certain things that take a brass knuckle fight," later snarling "Let's start a real physical revolution if that's what you're talking about!" And he probably would have capped off the remark with a throat-ripping Howard Dean-style berserker scream were it not for the likelihood that the shock might kill a number of geriatrics in the audience. Or at the very least, cause blowouts in their Depends.

It's hard for us to picture exactly what a Joe Biden revolution would look like, but we're pretty sure that hand-to-hand combat would be replaced with "hands-to-inappropriately-personal-areas" combat, and that members of the Biden infantry would stand on the balconies of their mansions shooting shotgun blasts into the air.

It's a terrifying picture, and we can only pray that the Moral Action Congress of the Poor People's Campaign will ignore Biden's calls for violence. And change their ridiculous freaking name.














On my way home I listened to a Conservative reporter make an observation about Trump's rally in Florida. He was not making it as a point against the President, just something they should note. This man has attended over 90 Trump rallies. 

He said that in this instance, the place was jam-packed but he noticed that during the event people slipped out the door. Not a lot, but enough that he noticed. My thought is they might have been considering the confusion after the rally or were already exhausted from waiting for the event to begin.




































Nature streamlines best. Look at that absolute killer focus.

Yes, (((he is))).








Exquisite.












Another month and a half and these will be everywhere for the picking. Sometimes we went and filled a few buckets and pails with these and made jam and so many good things. Places where so much bounty are harder to find now.




























































 Rothschilds at dinner.




Where do Christian Zionists come from?




















I have always been a fan of this guy. He seems woke and grounded. So far he has not gotten involved in politics but his movies have been majorly influential.




















Although I am allergic to housecats, I am fine with other breeds of feline. If possible, would I do this? Surely this woman and cat are bonded; given the opportunity I would give it a try. I lay odds she is wide awake, however.
















What a silly woman! Truly silly.






Ain't this the truth?!?!




Who'da thunk it?






Feast.




Yes!








Not since Charlie Hebdo have I seen cartoonists from around the globe stand in such unison against an issue as this NYT banning of editorial cartoons. What I do not understand is why some of them insist on blaming Mr. Trump when this paper leads the pack in enmity towards the President. The NYT is deeply involved with George Soros. So I doubt Trump has anything to do with it. But then, I am told he is responsible for the disappearance of the dinosaurs so perhaps he did have a hand in everything to do with the NYT.








Er, Plug and Play Pink?








Somewhere in Saudi Arabia.




















No, not all of them. Not all of us. 
The gloss is off, but what is the alternative?








Back to the Scofield Bible belt. This really saddens me. These people would have such a rude awakening if they went to Israel and were not in special zones, saw how Christians are really considered over there.










 
After dinner bath. Let no blood go to waste.











 "Jim Acosta, put on that dunce cap or get the hell out." 
White House Spokesperson Sarah Huckabee Sanders has announced that she's leaving her position at the end of the month, and she will be sorely missed. Or at least, she'll be sorely missed by those of us who appreciated her strength, her humor, her intelligence, and her mastery of facts. And more than that, her delectable ability and willingness to rip new superhighway-sized buttholes in the many aggressively ignorant poltroons in the Press Room.

Which is why the mainstream media is unsurprisingly doing their best to savage this fine woman on her way out. A quick check of "news" related to her departure offers up nice, neutral headlines like these: "Sarah Sanders was the disdainful Queen of Gaslighting (Washington Post)," "With Sarah Sanders Leaving, Trump Now Lies Along (USA Today)," "As Sarah Sanders Signs Off, a Look Back at Her Biggest Lies (Vanity Fair)," "Sarah Sanders' Legacy: The Death of the White House Press Briefing (CNN)."

During her tenure, many on the supposedly pro-women Left decided if they couldn't match wits with her, they'd attack her personally. Her weight, her makeup, her clothing choices, and her Arkansas roots were all mocked viciously and repeatedly, clearly demonstrating the hypocrisy and snobbishness of the Progressive Left. And Sarah handled it all with unflappable style and wit.

It's hard to conceive of a tougher job than that which Ms. Sanders has handled so impressively, and hard to imagine who can now do the job as capably. There are fun speculations out there: not only our own Busty Ross, but names like James Woods, Mark Steyn, Diamond and Silk, Greg Gutfeld, Jordan Peterson, Gilbert Gottfried, Roseanne Barr, ventriloquist Jeff Dunham and "Walter," and (our personal favorite) Deadpool.

Whoever gets the job, we hope they're as willing to bring the fight to a combative Press Corps as was Sarah Huckabee Sanders. She should be proud of her service, and we eagerly look forward to seeing how she will dumbfound and torture those on the Left in the future.

  1. So glad you're all right, Noor. I was afraid you might have yielded to temptation and pigged out on some of that heavy food that you're always showing us pictures of, and made yourself ill. What about including a photograph of your grandson one of these days? Bon dimanche !

  3. Hey Noor
    Yeah,the pics of all the great food is salivating. For myself I found out is I need to stay away from all the (Gluten) "wheat,oats,rye,barley" as best as I can. It's hard on ones gut and for me it gives me psoriasis on my elbows and knees. Since I've stay away from it the psoriasis has pretty much cleared up. So for me it's low carbs and high protein. Lots of eggs,meat,veggies and friut,fresh or dried and I'm a happy camper. Ps... Yeah I too was wondering what might have happened,when the Sat.post was late,to you. I thought you might be under the weather. Great post as always,stay health my friend. See ya later...Steve,Lakeside CA.

  4. I like No. 151, showing two maintenance guys wrapping an aircraft engine with duct tape. Ah, so that's how they make sure their planes are fit to fly! I had often wondered.
